LIFELONG LEARNING GUIDE 5

For LuLu, of East London, an access course inart has now enabled her to fulfil a dream: fromSeptember she’ll be taking a degree in artpractice at the world-famous GoldsmithsUniversity.

“Some of my friends said I was mad tocome here,” says LuLu, “They said whydon’t you go to a college with a bigreputation for your access course, but to meit doesn’t matter where you start, it's whereyou end up that counts.”

Although she’d always been creative, LuLu wasworking in an office, but she left in 2008 to pursue herdream of becoming a professional artist and began by selling canvases inlocal street markets where an encounter with an LLS tutor changed herlife.

�The tutor told me about the course and said he thought it wouldreally help me. I’m so glad I met him. The course helped build my selfconfidence and discipline and made me realise that I wasn't mad andthat becoming a professional artist could be a reality for me. If itwasn’t for this course I would never had applied to Goldsmiths.�

Musician Tim van Eyken(32) is taking a dancecourse at WhitechapelIdea Store, and hopesthe course will helphim achieve his long-term ambitions: towrite music andsucceed as an actor.

“I’ve done some actingbefore,” says Tim, whocomes from Devon butnow lives in Blackwall, “butthe course has enabled me to get grounding indance which should help me with devisingtheatre work.”

Tim chose the course at Whitechapel after it wasrecommended by friends and he says he’d do thesame: “The course I did was very well run and verywell delivered. I’ve enjoyed it enormously, thoughit’s been hard work!”
